Questions about BWXT
What people ask.
Why is BWXT on Broken Stocks?
BWXT qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -35.1% from its rolling 252-day high of $241.12, set on 2026-04-16 — 126d ago.
Is BWXT a falling knife?
Not by the strict technical definition. BWXT is down -35.1% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 126d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. BWXT is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.
Is BWXT a buy?
Broken Stocks does not issue buy or sell recommendations. The list is a rules-based technical warning system. It tracks structural decline depth and recency — not company quality, management, fundamentals, or news. Always do your own research and consult a licensed advisor.
Where is BWXT trading inside its 52-week range?
At $156.44, BWXT sits 0.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($157.10) to its 52-week high ($241.82). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has BWXT been declining?
The current 35.1% decline accrued over 126d, which annualizes to roughly -101.7% per year. Annualized pace is a sanity check — a 30% decline in three months is a different signal than a 30% decline over two years.
How does BWXT compare to its sector?
There are 151 other Industrials tickers on Broken Stocks: 67 Red, 41 Amber, 43 Watch, with 29 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -30.8% — BWXT's decline is deeper than the sector median.
Does BWXT's earnings date affect its tier?
No. Tiering is decided purely by decline depth and recency of the rolling-high date. The earnings date on file (2026-08-03) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
